Sitting around the dinner table eating a bedtime snack --- celery (because it's suppose to work like an antacid).

Alyssa: Mommy, I wish we could get paid money to go to church.

Me: Some things are better than money (...thinking about treasures in heaven). Going to church helps us to become more like Jesus --- and becoming like Him will make it so you can receive many of His blessings.

Payton: Jesus has very important work for me to do. Like going on a mission! (He gives a HUGE smile. He's really excited to do this.)

Eli: If you could go anywhere in the world on your mission, where would you want to go?

Payton: Salt Lake City!

Me: That would be a great place to go.

Eli: Do you know why they call it "Salt Lake"?

Alyssa: Because it's a lake and it has salt in it.

Eli:(surprised) That's right!

Alyssa:(blushing because she's so smart)

Payton:(very matter-of-factly) Did you know sharks don't like salt water? They only like pepper water.

My Family

About Us

met over the phone. That's how and when he asked me out on our first date. 3 years later we were married for forever.
5 years later, Eli and I were blessed with a miracle when a loving angel placed newborn twins in our arms. Becoming parents was a dream come true and we will be forever grateful to her.
Our family wishes to share our love and laughter with another child. If you know of anyone searching for a family to raise, love and cherish their baby, please share our blog (sTinkerAndSonShine.blogspot.com) with them.
